It cannot be too often or too forcibly impressed on the people that Free Trade as it is in England means quite the reverse to freedom from taxation. The British policy -the policy adopt - ed •by the Canadian Grits --is to raise a revenue by direct impost, without deriving 'any benefit through incidental protection. Britain taxes tea and. coffee, which she cannot produce, and she admits free of "duty goods that enter into disastrous Competition with the product of her oivn lthor. Temple Bar hits off the situation in this way : "Birth is taxed, marriage is taxed, death is taxe we are taxed for our butler, if we a 'e prosperous enough to keep one; we are taxed for our foot- man, our grnoln ; the carriage we keep Is taxed : the omnibus we Inde in is taxed ; the house dog is taxed ; every - `thing we drink, wine, tea, coffee, is taxed ; light is taxed ; the linen we leep on is taxed ; the tobacco we 'stroke is' taxed ; our anti -bilious pills .are taxed ; we have local rates, poor • rates, county conned rates, water rates 'vestry' rates ; householders, ledgers. Married antic single [nen, woinen and children, are all taxed in some fortn or Other. `One -ninth out of what every 'body earns in this country,' Lord Sher- brooke said, 'goes in taxes ;' but the . proportion is more now, and is groty- 1ng all the time " The Reform Almanac for 1895 con- : - fitins all this and adds much more concerning the oppressive taxation in England -under "Free Trade." In lift y years, up to j{1888, local taxation rose , from 28,000,000 sterling ($-10,0(X),000) to $80,000,000, and of the increase of $40,- • 000,000 the poor rates have to be credit- . ed with $10,000,000 -but England has •Fr'ee Trade. In 1894 the land tax amounted to $5,172,0(X), and as all our farmers are freeholders, they would have the mace privilege under the .,; policy of Mr. Laurier. House duty f;. amounted to $0,125,0(X). Property and income tax goes near to $100,0(XI,000; ;J stamps, $64,300,000, exclusive of free a and patent stamps, which amount to $4,354,215. To be more particular, cus- toms amounting to $150,000,0(X), all 00 things consumed by the poor --beer, chicory, cocoa, coffee, currants, figs, plums, raisins, spirits, tea. Tea alone paid $17,500,000. Then the excise-- $50 in beer, $81,500,000 in spirits, an n r',i"t$ilClys, $840,0(X); stamps - death duties of various kinds, $50,000,- 000'; deeds and other instruments, $10,200,000 ; receipts, drafts and other penny stamps, $5,850,000. At every turn of his life the Englishman pays taxes; $250 on becoming a bnrriss ter ; $400 to be articled to an attorney ; land tax on land and tenements, $5,- '100,000 ; inhabited house duty, $7,2(10,- 000; total land tax and house duty $12, 300;000 ; income tax, $79,300,001. For every male servant, $3.75, and 8 cents a pound on tea. Ppt3'f 'r8..",Qne gUart flour, one pint milk, two eggs beaten light, butter size of an egg, three tablespoonfuls sugar, and three teaspoonfuls baking powder. MAHOGANY OAKS.—One quart milk, three pints flour and four eggs. Beat yolks and whites of the eggs separ- ately. Add the yolks to the Milk, stir in the flour, a pinch of salt ; beat well ; stir in the whites ; put into hot geul pans and bake. LAYER CAKE.—One cup of sugar, piece of butter the size of an egg, half •a cup ol: milk, two eggs, two cups flour, two teaspoons baking powder. Bake as jelly cake. DATE PUUDiNG.---One half pound of dates, one-quarter pound of slut, five ounces brown sugar, half -pouted grated bread crumbs, a little nutmeg, a little salt ; mix all together, with two well - beaten eggs; put into pudding mold and buil two and a -half hours. r•: e Electricity in The Household. The coining household will he "run" by electricity. The electricity will he stored in nice little jars or cells, and left at the home each morning, just like milk nowadays. "Johnnie, run routed the corner and buy four cents worth of electricity to rock the cradle with," the corning mother will say to the coming boy, and, "Oh, Johnnie, if you're going out, I want you to get about ten cents worth of electricity to run Lhe sewing machine with," his big sister will call after him, while as he scurries out the back way the cook will Nprobably observe, "Be yez going out ? ell, its some more electricity that len after wanting to grind the coffee with." That is it titers be a cook in the corning household. From present electrical indications it, would not be surprising if the entire retinue of do- mestics would be scene day usurped by a set of lay figures who will automati- cally perform their several duties. The question for Canadians to eon- . Sider is : Shall we sm.: ender our pros- • ent system of raising Il revenue by affording protection to our own indus- tries, for a system that would throw Our markets open to the world, and then in 'the impoverished condition that would he a sure resultant, place 'Upon ns the burden of supporting the F'ederial Government by direct. taxa- tion ? • Versatility. Even the best of proverbs are only half truths ; and many of them are de- ceptive half-truths. "A jack at all trades is good at none," is one of the sayings that has been handed down tel us from distant, generations. "Let the shoemaker stick to his last," is another that is equally venerable. Both alike are used to express the idea that the man who undertakes a number of di- verse tasks is certain to end in failure. Is this thought wholly true? We are not sure of it. That the greatest succes is reserved for those, who pre- serve a certain unity in the main pur- poses of their lives, is unquestionably the case, But this unity of purpose is perfectly consistent with engagement to many minor and Incidental occupations. In fact, a variety of pursuits Is necesary to the full awakening of the faculties of the mind. No man can do one thing thoroughly well who is able to do one thing only. The shoemaker that sticks exclusively to his last is likely to be a dull fellow. Versatility is one of the surest signs of mental power. A con- spicuous illustration of this fact is Gladstone, found in the case of Mn who has busied himself with every- thing, from the best methods of mak- ing fruit jams to the intricacies of "the Homeric question." What we have said must not be construed into a de- fense of the unfortunate habit of squandering one's energies in trifling and ineffective driblets. ThePeople Speak They Spread the Glad News.

TUE IWOTIIER OF TO -DAY AND, HOW SHE COMPARES WITH THE MOTHERS OF LANG SYNE. • A Vleaslug Pen-leertratt of the SLitrou into Graced the Elder Days and ct Con- trasting Stickle of the Reign tug I1other. There are copious folios written about the girl of the period, the up-to-date girl, and the modern girl, but, says Lon- don Lady, we do not often hear any- thing about her mother ; and yet it seems to us there Is. if anything, a vaster difference between her and the mother of the last generation. The mother of long ago was much older and more sedan'. She sat a great deal by the lire, and seldom walked out, except for ceremonious calls or neces- eery shopping. She ueuatly wore ga- loshes when she took the air, and a little shawl of dainty white or pink wool lay over her shoulders as she sat writing long letters to her absent chil- dren, in a fine, sloping, Italian hand, She made no end of " sirnplee " and pomades and liniments, and had a rem- edy and a recipe for every- evil under the sun, She disapproved of theatres and balls and smoking, and she was wile with terror when any of her brood went skating. She never cared to talk to men, other than the vicar and the doctor, but had cronies of her own ilk, to whom she confided all her troubles. She carried her keys in a basket, and looked well to the ways of her house- hold. Her best dress was a rick black silk, which was made and remade in a matronly fashion, and she had a drawer full of priceless little bits of lace. She wore a cap, and parted her hair in the middle. She was inexpressibly shocked when she heard of anything like flirt- ing going on among the girls, and laid down the most moral and stringent axioms, yet she had been a fearful flirt herself, because, when sitting over a cozy fire in the gloaming, hc'r heart ex- panded and her tongue loosened by the inspiring influence of a Christmas or a wedding, she would tell us most de- licious little episodes of the sweetest and quaintest love -making, in which she played the leading lady, "long be- fore I saw your dear papa, girls." She made a dear old lady, and as a grand- mother she was just perfection. On the whole, though, her views on some of the occupations and amusements of youth, her extraordinary propensity for airing everything, and her yearning after flannel as a first article of attire, made her somewhat of a nuisance now and then, much as her children all loved her. The up-to-date mother Is quite differ- ent. To begin with, she is much•young- er—quite young. in fact. She is in- finitely younger and better -looking than her twenty -year-old daughter. She may have reached thirty-five, but she never passes it. She wears far more stylish and becoming clothes than her girls, and enjoys balls and parties and concerts more than they do. She is a brilliant talker ; she has a horror of women older than herself, and is inex- pressibly bored by them, eagerly wel- coming her men friends. of whom she has a regular cortege. She goes every- where and knows everything. She never carries a key. and she never oh- trudes her housekeeping into notice ; yet her house, to outward observation, is beautifully kept, her decorations ar- tistic. She gives charming little din- ners, though she neither makes, mixes not tastes the cookery thereof, IIer sons are proud of the " hater," and confide in her and tell her things their father would have expired rather than he would have told his mother. IIer daughters admire her immensely, and are quite happy to he her satellites and maids of honor, and to follow meekly in Iter wake. She is, in fact, very at- tractive, and has a real gond time of it, and. if fate decrees her to be a grand - mamma, ti is quite pretty and a huge joke to see the fascinating, youthful grannie with the little grandchild. She Is infinitely more playful and skittish with him than his own mamma is, and is delighted when people say, " Fancy you a grandmother !" We think everyone will agree with us that these are some of the differ- ences between the two mothers.
